Sisters

What is a sister?Is it simply a woman with whom you share some DNA?Is it just a girl you grow up with?Is it a small amphibian dwelling in temperate zones throughout Europe and Asia?It is all of these things and more, but not the last one

A sister is possibly the most precious thing you can have in lifeEspecially a sister made from diamonds and uraniumJust think about that for a momentThink about your shiny radioactive robot sisterImagine the fun you could haveImagine the dreadful atrocities she would visit upon the local citizenry, at your command

Is this not what a sister is for, in the end?Should not a sister be not only a friend and confidant, but also a public menace?What's the point of a sister who cannot commit murder on a grand scale?As useless, as my grandfather used to say, as tits on a marmosetWhat was wrong with grandfather anyway? Why did he drink so much paint?Was it my sister's fault?Probably

I have three sistersAnd I have never felt so close to them as I do todayWe don't see each other as much as we shouldAnd we don't talk to each other as much as we shouldAnd we don't know each other's names as much as we shouldAnd we frequently tell each other we hate each other and want each other to dieBut we have a bond that can't be brokenA bond of bloodEven though they are all adoptedOr at least that's what I tell them

A sister is a wonderful thing to haveSo useful, so helpful in times of troubleWaitNot a sisterA trailerA trailer is a wonderful thing to haveMore useful than a sister anywayYou can barely fit anything into a sisterIf you want my advice, get a trailer

I think the best kind of sisterIs the young, attractive, sexually liberated kindWho is not your sister, but someone else'sAnother good kind of sisterIs the kind who shoots chocolate out of her eye socketsBut let's face it

That's pretty rare

What have we learned about sisters?Nothing - and isn't that just typical?We never learn, we never progress, we never advance ourselves as a speciesAnd hence we die, unenlightened and aloneEspecially if we pissed off our sistersSo be nice to your sisterShe may be all you have left after your wife leaves you and your parents die and you are excommunicated from your church because you sexually violated a porcupine during MassBe nice to your sisterAnd she will be nice to youOr not - she might be a right bitch
